Miso-Glazed Mackerel Grilled on Onion
κ³ λ±μ΄λμ₯ꡬμ΄
Mackerel marinated in a light miso-mayo glaze, then lightly scraped and pan-grilled on a bed of onion skins and sliced onion. Grilling on onion keeps the fish from burning and absorbs fishy odors, and scraping off the marinade before cooking lowers salt intake.
